tuftearsI figured out how to correctly wrap the zongzis! This looks much closer to the style that my family makes. However, the amount of rice left over was only enough for four, so I've marked my previous recipe to indicate it makes 16 zongzis, not 24.
I figured it out when I looked at this video. Basically I needed a third leaf to close the zongzi up. It's complicated to explain, but... The new zongzi (even if I only have four) taste and look great.
I also tried to boil some zongzis in water mixed with a cup of soy sauce to make the insufficiently salty ones tastier, but I think it will be just easier to remember to add a bit of salt to the untreated ones -- too much trouble, otherwise.
